On Top of Incompetent and Corrupt, Charter Schools Are Also Racist

Why not just admit the real distraction is the color of her skin content of her character?

TPM:

Oklahoma man Terrance Parker pulled his 7-year-old daughter, Tiana, out of a Tulsa charter school after he said school officials told him Tiana's dreadlocked hair didn't look presentable, local Fox affiliate KOKI reported Wednesday.

The dress code at Deborah Brown Community School states that "hairstyles such as dreadlocks, afros, mohawks, and other faddish styles are unacceptable." The school feels that could distract from a respectful and serious atmosphere, according to KOKI. School officials declined to speak with reporters.

"She's always presentable. I take pride in my kids looking nice," Parker, who is a barber, told KOKI. He has enrolled Tiana at a new school which does not take issue with her hairstyle, he said.

Watch the video. The child's dreads are so short I had to zoom in to even see them.
